Lorenzo Di Cecco Memorial Award
Mrs. Anna Maria Braithwaite has established the Lorenzo Di Cecco Memorial Award in Criminal Law. The $2,000 award will be presented annually to a full-time undergraduate student in their final year in the Western Faculty of Law, based on the highest academic average in advanced criminal law courses. This award honours Anna Maria Braithwaite’s late brother Lorenzo Di Cecco, LLB’71.
Di Cecco practiced law and was appointed a Criminal Court Justice of the Ontario Court of Justice, and later served clients as a criminal defense lawyer. “He was deeply principled, and always sought to advance the fundamental ideals of the administration of justice,” recalled Anna Maria. “Lorenzo was a voracious reader and avid student, continuing his legal education and obtaining a Master of Law Degree in his retirement. He was a role model to us all and is deeply missed,” she said. Di Cecco died in 2017 at the age of 73.
